## TL;DR
Fix this by acting on the exact problem first: in the due diligence workflow, check that the vendor legal name and country fields required by screening are populated, run the sanctions screen manually for the new vendor using its legal entity name, and attach the screening result with its timestamp to the vendor record. Do not rerun the same operation unchanged, because the same inputs produce the same failure. Prove the fix on one new vendor screening record first, then rerun the full scope and reconcile the results.

## Use this when
- The operation in the vendor due diligence workflow fails with this exact problem: vendor due diligence error sanctions screening result missing for new vendor.
- The same failure repeats on retry with unchanged inputs.
- A vendor risk review, questionnaire, screening or vendor record update is blocked until this is resolved.

## Not for this skill when
- The notice is a platform outage from the vendor. Resolve that first, then return here if this problem remains.
- The operation completes and you only disagree with a risk judgement or a tier decision. That is a risk owner decision, not this failure.

## Steps
1. Reproduce the failure on one named new vendor screening record in the vendor due diligence workflow and record the full problem text plus the vendor, record or report involved. Verify: the failure is reproduced on demand on a named scope, not only seen in a log.
2. Apply the specific fix for this problem: in the due diligence workflow, check that the vendor legal name and country fields required by screening are populated, run the sanctions screen manually for the new vendor using its legal entity name, and attach the screening result with its timestamp to the vendor record. Verify: the single failing new vendor screening record now behaves as the fix predicts, or the corrected value is visible on the record.
3. Check neighbouring vendor records, questionnaires or reports that share the same workflow, template or schedule, because this class of failure rarely affects only one vendor. Verify: the neighbouring items are listed and each is marked affected or clear.
4. Rerun the original operation in the vendor due diligence workflow on the previously failing scope, watching for the same problem rather than assuming success from a quiet log. Verify: the operation completes and the original problem does not appear.
5. Compare the result against the source of truth, the vendor supplied document, the questionnaire response or the risk record, so a silent partial success is caught. Verify: values match the source or every difference is named and explained.
6. Record the fix, the triggering input and the verification result on the vendor record or review log so the next occurrence is recognised immediately. Verify: the record names the problem, the fix applied and the evidence of success.

## Variant phrasings

### vendor due diligence error sanctions screening result missing for new vendor
The verbatim form searchers paste from the console, report or run log. Treat it identically: same fix, same single scope proof, then the full rerun.

### How to fix - vendor due diligence error sanctions screening result missing for new vendor
The how to phrasing for the same failure in the vendor due diligence workflow. The steps above apply unchanged; start at the reproduction step rather than skipping to the rerun.

### The vendor due diligence workflow troubleshooting for this failure
The symptom first phrasing used when the console hides the full problem. Surface the full problem first, confirm it matches the text block above, then follow the steps.

## Why it happens
Sanctions screening runs as a separate step or job keyed on the vendor legal name, and missing required fields or a paused job means the screen never runs for a new vendor, leaving a gap that the vendor record does not flag on its own.

## Edge cases
- The vendor record, questionnaire version or portal page changed after the failing run started. Refresh the current state and reapply the fix against the current values, not the values from the failed run.
- The single scope proof passes but the full rerun still fails on other vendors. Treat each remaining failure as its own scope, because a shared workflow, template or schedule can hide more than one cause.
- The source systems disagree on the correct value. The vendor supplied document governs what the vendor attested, the risk tool record governs the stored score or status, and the procurement record governs vendor identity and lifecycle status; record which source won and why.

Compatibility: The vendor due diligence workflow at current versions, plus the vendor risk, procurement or source system the query names; no extra tooling beyond access to the source records needed to verify results.
